if the dems support the troops as they say why do they not demand bush unleash the full military might of the U.S. military regardless of collatral damage unlike our troops who are suffering needless casualtys due to dems actions and demand a victory so as to bring our troops home instead of constantly trying to find ways to allow for the defeat of our troops?

Our troops shouldn't have been there in the first place. Who is bush going to send? Are you convinced that our military is trained well enough? I'm not. Are you convinced they have the equipment necessary to be as safe as possible? I'm not. Would you be willing to stay for a few extra tours of duty? I wouldn't.
bush has lied. He's kept soldiers over there for longer than promised. Some have served 2-3 tours of duty.
The best way we can support our troops is to bring them home to their families and then provide them with the benefits they were promised and have earned. They deserve to have the same benefits as congress has. Do you consider that supporting the troops? I do. BRING THEM HOME!
Quickie, where in the question does it ask about other WW1 and WW2? When all logic fails, bring up old mistakes. No one is saying mistakes haven't been made on both sides. Quit making such lame assumptions. Stick to the question.

I have my own theory. The democrats support the war. They waste time on non-binding resolutions that they can't even get through congress to make it look like they give a crap about their campaign promises.
If you recall, they were going to have everything sorted out as soon as they took office. It's been a little over two months, and they've voted on a single non-binsing resolution that they couldn't even get through.
Meanwhile, Nancy Pelosi's supporters protested against her in front of her house in San Francisco, a little over two months after she took her seat as Speaker of the House. That's got to be some kind of record for the supporters of a political party's leader to turn against her at that level.

Good point. The democrats want us to lose in Iraq so that come November 2008, people will see what a horrible "failure" Iraq was, and therefore vote for democrats. A loss for our troops means gains in Congress (and possibly the white house) for dems. Pretty sick.

good question.
"We support the troops but we will no longer send the reinforcements and fund to them but we really really really do support the troops."
To Katy below...
Do you know it was Democrat presidents' foreign policy that caused WWI and WWII? Wilson and FDR tried so hard not to get involved with the world affairs and guess what? they would eventually come to our home.
Bush lied?? Why is that when Clinton mentioned WMD, no liberals ever called him a liar?! do you know we still have troops in German and Japan???? that is 62 years from 1945.
History lesson. Katy.

They hate it when someone is doing something good for America when they don't have the ball to do it.
